War is always costly to the perpetrators, government, and victims. It will affect their mind, body, and soul. Lemba is a child caught up in the horror of it all. To watch death of loves and friends can be horrendous. How can he escape such a world? Thanks for your review.

I already can feel that this would be an inspiring book. It discussed many heavy topics related to a war. I think it's even more heartbreaking because we will get to read this through the eyes of a teen.

I like it when a sad story finishes with a happy ending. Being forced to join a terrorist group as a 15years old is quite a lot. I would love to see if Lemba kept his heart good or if it got corrupted. Good one from the author. Congratulations on being the book of the day!

This sounds like an interesting kid. I'm curious to know how he was able to gain his interest in technologies. Can't wait to read the book, it has some many things to offer. Congrats on making the book of the day.

This might be fictional, but the issues that are addressed in the book are very real and cut to the core of human tyranny and oppression. Through it all, there is still a silver lining of hope resonating within its pages.

A brilliant teenager is coerced into fighting with terrorists in order to protect his family. We see children get involved in wars and always wonder how or why. This book talks about one aspect. Congratulations to the writer.

The fact that the main protagonist is a Congolese makes the book appealing. Lemba Adula has a lot on his plate. The decision he has to make seems to be influenced by many people. This is an amazing book to read. Congratulations on BOTD!

The author touches a burning issue in this book, namely, the manipulation of young and brilliant minds by the terrorists. Thanks for the awesome review!

I greatly sympathize with Lemba Adula. He has great skills but now he's forced to use them to carry out evil activities. I really hope he figured out how to escape the threats and finally used his impeccable skills for greater good.
Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen
